Hi all,

I plan to merge this over the weekend, so please speak up if there is
something that prevents it.

There is one thing we need to solve to have this interface evolve. So such a
control/stat command is quite good for machine driven interaction and the
output is simple/standardized. On the other hand we have the VTY that let's us
define a tree of information, add commands, is doing nice range-checking. In
general we are using the VTY code for two things, runtime interaction and
configuration.


I am not sure but for configuration something like the below might be
desirable, I am not sure about that yet.... :)
